BUFFY FILM IS HAPPENING?
Its still a lot of ifs, maybes, wishs, wants and could happens..but a Buffy movie is supposedly happening according to Nicholas Brendon.
According to a scooper for Aint it Cool, Brendon announced that Joss Whedon is doing a film version of his popular Slayed series while at last weekends Cleveland Slayer Convention. Brendon did a Q/A and let slip that Joss is working on another show. When asked what it was called he mumbled something like ‘Brothers’ but then said he didn’t know. He also said that a Buffy movie is going to happen it’s just a question of when. I also found it strange that he mentioned a Buffy cartoon that has Allison, Anthony and him doing voices that might be picked up soon. I thought the Buffy cartoon was dead…?
Um, yeah, even Whedon thinks its dead. Its funny that Brendon knows so much.
Meanwhile, the scooper got some dirt on both Angel and Ripper, the planned Giles Spin-off which the BBC was supposed to do. Mercedes McNab said that Angel is dead as an ongoing series but she did hear about the TV movies. She even started to cry when talking about the shows end. Anthony Head talked about Whedon and him doing a spin off called Ripper. He said that he and Joss talk about it every time they see each other. It is supposed to start off as a 2 hour TV movie.
Meanwhile, the rumour mill is abuzz that James Marsters might be in talk to do his own show. Yep, Spike, the series, is an idea being discussed. Heres hoping something comes of it. Marsters is apparently up for it no idea which network is/would be interested in it though. Fingers crossed peoples.
